“…Consequently, residency programs have used multiple techniques to integrate the core competencies into the learning process. These include rigorous morbidity and mortality conferences, 2 morning report, 3 self-directed learning, 4,5 web-based modules, 4,6 and classic on-the-job Halstedian teaching. 7 Patient care and medical knowledge are arguably the most facile to incorporate and test: didactic learning programs such as the Surgical Council on Resident Education 8 curriculum are universally used in many residency programs, and surgical knowledge is annually tested with the American Board of Surgery In-Training Examination.…”

Identifying and Eliminating Deficiencies in the General Surgery Resident Core Competency Curriculum

General surgery residents in our program do not report being knowledgeable or comfortable with several areas of the nonclinical Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education core competencies. We developed a formal health care policy and management curriculum, with integration into preexisting protected surgical didactic time. This curriculum fulfills educational requirements, without negatively affecting resident work hours and without increased expense to the department of surgery. Future studies measuring the effect of this integrated program on resident education, knowledge, and satisfaction are warranted.

“…Most of these languish (unused or underutilized) for a variety of reasons with a common find of not adequately meeting the practicing surgeon's needs. To more effectively meet this need, an efficient and engaging educational program must be designed, accommodating adult learning theories [49], which will cultivate learning and change in practice. Accordingly, these educational interventions must incorporate technology (web-based learning, simulation, virtual reality, etc.)…”

“…Perhaps the creation of an educational online program regarding surgical equipment would increase resident participation because it would be available for use on a 24-hour basis. 11 Finally, the issue of lag in knowledge is not assessed in this study, as it is possible that repeat testing may show a drop in knowledge from the immediate postteaching exercise, especially if residents are not afforded the opportunity to work with the staplers on a regular basis. However, we feel that the knowledge level required to use the staplers proficiently is not overly complex, can be taught easily, and would therefore be well retained.…”
